METHOD OF MOUNTING PATTERN$ ON MATCH BOARDS.

Application filed February This invention relates to methods of mounting patterns on match-boards and has for one ofits objects the provision of an improved method whereby the patterns can be accurately mounted in materially less time than by any of the methods now in use.

Another object is to provide a method that be carried out by unskilledlabor, thereby materially reducing the labor cost for mountmg patterns. I

A further object is to provide a method of mounting patterns on match-boards including thfe several novel steps hereinafter described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

In the drawingsi Figure 1 is a plan view of one of the mounting frames.

s Figure 2 is a sectional view taken on the li'ne II-II of Figure 1.

Flgure 3 is a plan view of one of the hiountiiig frames positioned on a matchbolifrd and having the outline of the drag part of the patterns thereon.

Figure 4: is a sectional view line IVIV of Figure 3.

Figure 5 is a plan view of the second frame superimposed on the first frame on the match-board and having the outline of the cope part of the patterns thereon.

Figure 6 is a sectional view taken on the line VI-VI of Figure 5.

Figure 7 is a plan view of the frame having the outline for the drag part of the patterns thereon, arranged on the match-board and having the drag part of the patterns setaken on the eured thereto.

' the line XX of Figure 9.

Referring. more particularly to the drawthe letters A and B designate the layin carrying out my method, such frames being of duplicate construction and comprising a wooden frame 2 of slightly smaller size than the match-board 3 and provided with dowel-holes 4; adapted to aline with other dowel-holes 5 'in the match board. Dowel-pins 6 are adapted to be P d thr ug 'tl r' dowe pen ngs Tor 16, 1926. Serial No. 88,718.

holes 4: and 5 to center the frames A and B on the match-board.

The frames A andB are adapted to have a sheet of transparent drawing paper or other similar material 7 removably secured thereon by thumb-tacks 8, and the outline or position markings of the pattern parts are adapted to be made on the material 7 by a pencil or other marker.

The drag parts of the patterns are designated by the numerals 9 and 10, and'the cope parts by the numerals 11 and 12. The numeral 14 designates a filler-board which is fit-ted within the frame having the outline of the drag parts of thepatterns thereon to support thepaper 7 on said frame when the other frame is superimposed thereon.

In carrying out my invention the frames A and B are first prepared by securing the paper 7 on the wooden frame members 2. The prepared frame A is then positioned on the match-board 3, with the paper side down against the board, and centered by inserting dowel-pins 6 'in the dowel-pin holes 4 and 5 in the frame and match-board respectively.

When the frame A has thus been positioned and centered, the drag parts 9 and are positioned on the paper 7 and the outline of the parts 9 and 10 marked or drawn on the paper by a pencil or other similar instrument, as indicated at 15 and 16.

After the outlines 15 and 16 are made, the parts 9 and 10 are removed, the frame A is inverted on the match-board 3, and the fillerboard 14 is placed in the frame to fill the space between the paper 7 on the frame A' and the match-board.

The second frame B is now superimposed or mounted on top of the frame A with its paper side down in contact with the paper on the frame A.

The paper on the frame B at least being transparent, the outlines on the paper of frame A will be visible through the paper on frame B.

The frames A and B are then centered or alined with each other and centered on the match-board by passing the dowel-pins 6 through the holes 4 in the frames and the holes 5 in the match-board. The cope sides or parts of the patterns are now arranged on the paper 7 on the frame B in alinement I with the outlines or markings on the paper 7 on frame A whichare visible through the paper on the frame B, and the; outlines of the copeparts are drawn-on the paper-Jon the frame B,

as indicated. at:17arrd,18-. The I cope sides or parts of the patterns are then removed and the frames and tiller-board 1 L removed from the match-board The frame A is then mounted on the match-board 3 with the paper side against the board and centered by inserting the dowel-pins 6 in the holes i and 5. The drag sides or parts of the patterns 9 and 10 are then positioned on the paper in alineinent with the previously made outlines l5 and 16, and such parts are then nailed or otherwise securely mounted on the board. The frame A is then removed and the paper out or torn away from around the pattern parts.

The match-board 3 is then inverted and the franie'fi'liaving the outlines 1'7 and 18 of the cope parts thereon, is positioned on the other side of the match-board and centered by inserting the dowel-pins 6 in the holes 4; and 5. The cope sides or parts 11 and 120i the patterns-are then positioned on the paper in alinement with the previously made outlines 17 and 1S, and such parts are then nailed or otherwise securely mounted on the board. The frame B is then removed and the paper cut or torn away from around the pattern parts.

The match-board 3 is now ready for use in forming the molds.

If the outlines of the drag and cope parts of the pa tern are different or where there are several loose pieces in the cope part, cross lines are drawn on the joint side of the pattern-parts and continued up the sides oi the pattern parts, as at 20. Pencil match marks 21 are then made on the paper 7 to correspond with the lines 20 of the drag part. i i'ter the outline of the drag part is made and the part removed from the paper the match marks 21 are connected by drawing straight lines 22. The cope piece or pieces of the pattern may then be locatedin proper position relative to the outline oi the drag piece by bringing the match cross lines 20 on-the cope into alinement with the lines 22 on the paper of frame A when making the outline of the cope piece.

lVhile I have shown my invention as used for mounting the drag and cope parts of: the patterns on the opposite sides of the same match-board, it will be understood that I do not wish to be limited thereto, since it may be used to mount the drag and cope parts on separate boards or on the same side of a single board if desired.

It will also'be understood that I do not wish to be limited to the use ofthe specific apparatus shown and described for carrying out my invention sincevar-iousniodifications of this apparatus may be used without departing tr'onrthe scopeof my'novel methodas defined lathe-appended claims.
